12:01 (1993)

Based on a story by Richard Lupoff (a short filmization of the same story earned an Oscar nomination for 1990), 12:01 centers on a scientific researcher who discovers that the world has become somehow trapped in a strange time warp that causes the same 24-hour period to repeat itself. During the course of that endlessly repeated day, Thompson, the only one who seems to be aware of what's happening, must somehow figure out how to put time back on its normal course and solve the murder of his new lover.
